Colorado Chapter

Thank you for visiting the Colorado Chapter of the FSHD Society which officially launched in October 2018. We are here to build a local community of patients, family and friends, and help them connect and advocate for themselves and each other. Our hope for the future is to find a cure – Until then, we hope to bring a greater awareness to the community, and to help improve the quality of life of all those affected.

Thank you to everyone who was able to attend our 2019 Walk & Roll to Cure FSHD! It was a beautiful day and we were honored to celebrate our 4th annual fundraiser with you all. Although our event has passed, we are accepting donations until Saturday, September 21st! Keep fundraising so that you can win some amazing prizes!

Meet your Chapter Director: Amanda A. Hill

I grew up here in Colorado and live in Highlands Ranch with my husband, Justin, and our two adorable yellow labs. Justin was diagnosed with FSHD in 2016 at the age of 31 and the disease has since impacted our lives greatly. I work in biomedical research and I am passionate about health and scientific education and advocacy, so becoming involved with the FSHD Society was a natural and obvious step for me. Beyond the FSHD, Justin and I love nights out in Denver; gardening and enjoying our backyard with the dogs; all things having to do with food, cooking, wine, and beer; and researching cleaner, safer, more sustainable lifestyle changes. I am honored to be the FSHD Society Chapter Director in Colorado and am excited for our community to be able to grow together.
